Description

Welcome to Cryptic Soup, your after-dark podcast filled with nightmares that haunt the daylight. From murders, to crimes, to cryptids, to anything in between, you can learn about what might be going bump in the night.

In this week's episode, join Thena and Kylee to discuss the origins of the Fae Folk. We will talk about a few examples of these creatures, what happens when you encounter them, and just why they have become a harbinger of fear for many. This isn’t your usual fairy story here.
